Empanadas with Impact at Mercat a la Planxa

We’re proud to announce that throughout November, Mercat a la Planxa will donate $1 from every empanada sold to Meals on Wheels Chicago.

This partnership helps fund home-delivered meals and wellness programs for thousands of older adults and individuals with disabilities across Chicago, ensuring they can live safely and independently at home.

Together, we’re proving that small actions (and delicious empanadas) can make a big impact.

Cyber Monday, Shop for Seniors

While you’re shopping Black Friday deals this year, consider adding a few items from our Amazon Wishlist to your cart. Our city’s seniors are hungry, isolated, and struggling to make ends meet, and with critical meal and safety-net programs facing dangerously low funding, many can’t afford the basic personal care and household items that keep them healthy. By donating wishlist items today, you’ll help stock the Nourish Chicago Pantry, support seniors who rely on us, and keep program costs down so we can continue serving older adults in their greatest time of need.
